Food Services and Programs

As one of the nation’s largest, most efficient and most innovative hunger relief organizations, Second Harvest Heartland works closely with nearly 1,000 partnering food shelves, food pantries and other meal programs. Second Harvest Heartland creates new partnerships with schools, hospitals and clinics. Our food bank is only part of how we reach hungry neighbors--we also advocate for programs and policies that support the families we serve.
